Strategy #11

Collaborate with civic, design, and technology partners.

The City doesn’t have to do it all on its own. Community and technology partners are ready to help develop and implement effective services. Joining forces with public-minded partners will make service delivery more effective for New Yorkers and efficient for government.

Here’s how to Engage Private Partners

Collect, format, and share data, as well as data you collect from external sources, consistent with law and policy so that partners can use and help you improve that data.
